Goals from Shkelzen Gashi and Luis Solignac were the culmination of poor play from Sporting KC as the Colorado Rapids defeated Sporting KC 2-1.
Turnovers and disjointed passing characterized play uglier than the original Kansas City Wiz kits for Sporting Kansas City on Wednesday night. They granted the Colorado Rapids the chances the away side needed to score and, combined with strong defense from the Rapids, were unable to break down Colorado in a 2-1 loss.
The first half showed some ugly soccer for Sporting KC. They turned the ball over numerous times and were not able to get consistent ball movement, leading to many attacks dying down.
